Construction
Conductors: Solid, annealed copper; sizes 19, 22 and 24 AWG
Insulation: Solid, high-density polyethylene, color-coded in accordance with telephone industry standards
Twisted Pairs: Insulated conductors are twisted into pairs with varying lay lengths to minimize crosstalk
Core Assembly:
- 25 pairs and less: pairs are assembled together in a single group
- More than 25 pairs: pairs are arranged in groups, each group having a color-coded unit binder
Filling Compound: The entire core assembly is completely filled with ETPR compound, filling the interstices between the pairs and under the core tape
Core Wrap: Non-hygroscopic dielectric tape applied longitudinally with an overlap
Sheath
Copper-Bearing Shield:
- Corrugated, copper-bearing gopher-resistant tape applied longitudinally with an overlap
- The sheath interfaces are flooded with an adhesive water-blocking compound
Jacket: Black, linear low-density polyethylene
Applications
- Intended for duct and direct buried installations where protection against water and moisture entry is required, and may also be installed aerially
- The copper-bearing tape provides increased mechanical protection and gopher resistance
Compliances
- Rural Development Utility Program (RDUP) 7 CFR 1755.390 (RUS PE-39)
- RoHS Compliant (effective 1/1/10)
- ANSI/ICEA S-84-608-2007
